Impartiality

What’s fair is frank is fabulous when

The ace is downed and done.

So hard to hold neutrality

When held under the gun.

But equal even-handed trial

Is necessary meat 

To feed the beast of justice fair

Who seldom knows defeat.

 

So, how might I stay steadfast

To impartiality and

Hold my head above the fray

In silent probity?

 

I do not choose.

I will not choose.

I’ll pose upon the fence

And listen to the lot of you

Decry the where and whence.

 

And when pretense and posturing

Are faded to demise

A soft rebuttal trills the air

On wings of gentle butterflies.
